TIE passage of the Inter. State Conn
Smerce Bill by Congress has created a
widespread interest in the Presidents
action as its approval OF veto. Great
opposition has been manifested to the
shill by the railroads, and many sections
ofthe:U Union also oppose it. The Attor-
ney Ganeral, ,sas q Senator, opposed the
.gbilI Hon institutional grounds, and many
persons who oppose the bill hope it will
Sbey vetoed on these grounds. It is gen.
sefalIy conceded that the President can
not consistently veto the bill on any
other grounds. and isdoubtful whether
hs can vel lido so on this ground, for it
passed by such large majorities, after full
debate that it is. not likely the President
iaill assert his legal opinion against the
vote of 30 large 9 majority in both
branches of Congress. It is not at all
Scsytain, either, as to what hls legal opia.
ion ., therefore, expect to see the
sbSM become alaV, though We should like
st0 ses it vetoed. We fear that &c will
aork mischief TO many sections Of the
Union. 81

An Unhappy Case.

A white man named Sizemore, in
wretched health and destitute circum.
stances, applied to the authorities on
Sunday for means to return to Charleston
to enter the hospital there. He said he
was employed in the Charleston cotton
factory but left there soon after the
earthquake and came to Piedmont, where
he found work. His health broke down
entirely, as he has consumption, and he
determined to 60 back to Charleston if
possible. A collection was taken for him
in the Baptist Sunday school and Chief
Of Police Kennedy and his men "chipped
in" The deficiency left WIS made up
from the city charity fund and the un-
happy man was sent off yesterday morn.

money in his pocket. He leaves his wife

Blaine's Boomers at Work.

WASHINGTON, January 29.-There has
been great effort to lionize Congress.
man Frank Hiscock, of New York, since
he returned to Washington with the SEN
atorial prize which dropped between
Morton and Miller in their desperate
struggle. The only lion.like thing about
Mr.. Hiscock, is his long, shaggy hair.
But he and his friends are attributing to
his election significance far beyond his
own triumph. They say it was
A VICTORY FOR BLAINE,
no less than for .Hiscock, and was the
first organized movement in the direction
of the nomination of Mr.. Blaine for the
presidency. Mr.. Hiscock talks with an
air of authority about Mr. Dlaine's can
didacy. He is said to be "Rhooping up"
the Blaine men in congress. His most
active coadjutor in this business is Con-
gresham VIM. Walter Phelps, Of New
jersey, the "my dear Phelps" of Blaine's
famous letter of explanation which didn't
explain.
The activity OF this element in the re-
publican party does not surprise anybody
in Washington. It has been conceded
here all the time that Blaine would be a
candidate for his party's nomination next
year, and that it would be almost impos.
sible for the other aspirants to prevent
his capture of the convention. A con-
siderable feeling in favor of the nomina.
ton of Senator Allison, Of lows, has
developed during this session, but it is
far inferior to the Blaine movement
among the Republican Congreaamen, and
still more hopeless among the masses of
the party. The friends of Mr.. Allison
may succeed in putting him second on
the ticket. They cannot reasonably
hope to do more. Delighted as the
Blaine men are at the prospect of his
nomination, they are not more pleased
than are many Democrats in Congress
who think Blaine the weakest possible
Republican candidate.
Cleveland against Blaine is the head
ing of most of the political states for
1883 which have been made up in WASH
ington. "The same candidates and the
same result" will be g foot note on these
states in November CT next year.

IDENTIFIED as BRIGHAM YOUNG.
The old man told the story with sin
cerity that warranted further investiga-
tion, and merchant who formerly did
business in Salt Lake drove out to the
mansion yesterday. and raped at the
door. Receiving nj response, he started
around the house to apply at the rear,
when through the long window be saw
the form and features of the old man,
who was sitting inside. As he was
unaware of his presence the merchant
approached to within few feet of the
window, scanning the old mans face
closely, and stepping back Immediately,
pronounced the man to be Brigham
Young, whose marked features he had
often studied in Salt Lake City, and
which once seen, he says, can never be
forgotten. For few moments the man
sat silently, and then raised his hand to
his brow, revealing the scar about the
wrist that still further established
identity. 1t is a we'll known fact that
the elders of the Mormon church
throughout Utah and Arizona, have of
late, been preaching the return Of the
prophet. This, together with the fact
that it was claimed by St. Louis man
some months ago, that Young was seen
and recognized in London, that mum.
Der of prominent Mormous from Salt
Lake City have lately been upon the
streets of Lincoln; that important legis.
lation is about to be enacted to the detri.

THE DUTIES OF oFREPREsESrAr1vEs.
The spartanburg correspondent Of the
Netus and Courier says ::

While the voters in several of the
counties are calling on their representa-.
tives to rise and explain, the sovereigps
Of our county are, to all appearances,
satisfied with their representatives.. They
had confidence in their integrity when
elected and they believe that they have
been faithful stewards. While the peo-
pie have right TO demand of THAR
leaders explanations of their official
conduct, it does seem to be foolish
thing that some one, signing himself
"Voter, ~" Vor Ropul;," or something of
the sort, should, in his individual
capacity, call on whole delegation to
render an account of their votes and
work. It is child's play, to say the least
of it. All the constituents have right
to demand are honesty of purpose, an
upright course of action, and constant
attention 10 business; but the individual,
or q fractious meeting, has no right to
demand the explanation of particular
vote or recommendation. While the
Legislator is q servant of the people, he is
net the abject slave of every man who
has little vote. Ifa Representative has
! to spend four weeks in Columbia making
Sor unmaking laws, or striving to keep
;others from making or nnarripg laws, and
! then spend the other forty eight weeks
Sof the year explaining the WORK of those
four weeks, there would be few worthy
candidates for the Legislature hereafter.
IS The correspondent has expressed him.
self very clearly and forcefully upon this
subject, and yet we are inclined to to
think that representative should always
he willing TO give his reasons for his
public acts to any voter who respectfully
calls for them. It may be little
troublesome, but in the end it will prove
beneficial, both to representatives and
their constituencies. OF course these
remarks apply only to such matters as in
volye principle or affect the people in
! their operation, for as to others, the peo-
pie have no right to call upon repressn-
tative. The fact that e man is repre-
sentative does not give the people the
irightto question his views upon general
matters more than any other citizen. 1t
is only his acts as q representative, or
that affect his conduct as q representa-.
tive, which one should be called upon to
answer. The correspondent, however, is
timely and correct in asserting the inde-
pendence Of representatives, and the
courtesy that is due them.

Mysterious Stranger.

LINCOLN, Neb., January 3o.--Two
miles south Of this ciLy, stands . palatial
residence owned by au English gentle
man long identified with the Mormon
church. The residence has been unat-
tended for the last two years, save by an
old servant named White, who was con-
nected with the Jezrels of London, a sect
similar to the Mormons. White claims
that he was defrauded by them out of his
property, and latterly became converted
to the Mormon faith. he was considered
q Trustworthy man, and, was therefore,
partially through necessity, taken into
the confidence of the leaders of the Nor
mon church Of Zion, which, according to
his statement, is about to perpetrate a
fraud to which he is unwilling to become
party. He says:
THE MYSTERIOUS STRANGER.
Two months ago there arrived at the
mansion an old gentleman, bearing let
ters from my master in London, the pur-
port of which was to obey every wish,
and 10 keep his presence secret to all
except those to whom he saw fit to reveal
himself Within q week persons began
to arrive at the house in twos and threes.
They we're from Salt Lake City, and held
long, whispered consultations with my
mysterious guest.
At first I did not care who or what he
was. Little by little I gathered from
stray remarks that be was a person Of
note, and soon after the truth burst upon
me that he was none other than Brigham
Young, the great prophet Of our church,
who is apsasently to be resurrected from
the dead, and preach. to the people Of
Zion al one having returned from the
grave to tell what lies beyond. That his
death and burial were a deception will
soon be seen by the whole world, while
thousands of his ignorant believers bow
at his feet, and he dictates to them their
ways of life.
My guests, the visitors are men Of high
standing, as their appearance indicates,
and it was in conversation with one Of
them, who supposed from the way ]
talked that I knew all, that my suspi.
cions were verified. My informant said
that Brigham Young had risen from his
grave in Salt Lake City, and Was
instructing his disciples here, in order to
prepare help for the great event of she
coming. My only reason for telling these
facts is that I am an old man with but
little to gain in this world, and do not
want to see the people deluded as l have
been. The Zezrels absorbed my compe-
tence and now the Mormons have broken
my faith.
